Your bestie is a unique being—that’s why they’re your perfect bestie. They deserve a gift that's a little more out of the box than usual, because giving your best friend a creative gift means you really get them. Let these last minute best friend gifts be your guide.
Most likely, the person you call your best friend will be happy with anything you get. A cool scarf, a bath set, or a DVD set of their favorite TV guilty pleasures are all great options. Of course, your best friends are your best friends, not for material reasons, but it doesn't hurt to give them something you put some thought into. It doesn't have to be anything crazy and complicated - no need to buy them special soap made from the milk of albino goats that are born only once in a generation in the Himalayas or anything like that - it's just that she probably won't Something to get from anyone but her best friend.
These gifts can be funny, sentimental, or directly targeted to her center of interest. Yes, a lot of them involve some kind of alcohol, but let's be honest - we can all appreciate a creative way to show off how much we love wine/tequila/whatever. Regardless, your bestie will be glad she didn't receive another book about growing up.
